I get the age difference, but Brown is a major flight risk if you ask me. I'm not sure he wants to stay here, even after he gets his bag.

I am not a big Dame guy, and I think JT, Dame, and Kp will be soft, weak defensively, and at times become a jump shooting convention. Besides I think Dame gets his wish and plays for the Heat.
